Pudding or Panettone for Christmas Peeps ?
How people eat Christmas Pudding is beyond me , have a pommy mate that all he goes on about is the Yorkshire Pudding in Christmas :nerd: .
I tell you what very rarely do we buy groceries at Aldi , Mrs has more patience than me in there , i never go there . You need to be a good wicket keeper at the checkout :laughing: , you find yourself screaming at the kids "give me BAGS " , anyway the one thing Aldi have that is beautiful is there Panettone :wink:

Any pudding lovers out there ? :laughing:

Can't stand the stuff, FT, but I hated raisin toast and cucumbers all my life until I turned 50 and now I love em, so who knows I might get to enjoy Christmas pudding one day too.

Some Aldi stores sell frozen Yorkshire puddings made in the U.K. , try em with real roast beef gravy ! Or wait till they cool down and put strawberry jam on them !

Please tell me your pulling me leg , tried the thing when i went there , pass

My Mum's family is English and Nan was the best cook ever

Any person who can make parsnips appertising is a winner

Loved her Yorkshire Pud the most

And that was saying something , her desserts where to die for especially her lemon merangue and her cheesecakes

Hap misses his Nan 😢 A truly wonderful woman
 
Don't be sad Hap,your Nan will be watching over you and the family,and watching you guys enjoy a festive and relaxing Xmas..
Have a good one Happy…. :smiley:

:smiley: tiger, nice to hear how special your Nan was to you, I'm lucky to have one Nan still around but my other Nan spent the last couple of years of her life suffering from dementia which is a terrible way to see them go for the Family not so much for the dementia sufferer as they got no idea what's going on.
I remember the nights we sit out the back and she would look at the sky and line up certain stars and tell me the weather for the next day ( something along those lines) she would have unbelievable stories of how they grew up.
It's very sad cause I have known people who neglect there Nans and Pops and take them for granted.

My Nan was one of the most wonderful people I have ever met and she didn't have it easy that's for sure

Unfortunately my Nan had dementia as well in the end and ended up dying due to the treatment they used at the time for treating breast cancer

She lost both her parents in the London air raids during WW2 and was raising her 4 brothers and sisters when she came home one day and the British Govt had taken all 4

She only ever found one , a brother who had moved to Melbourne

Strangely enough she met my Grandfather and he was actually in the RAF of all places as an artist He flew with the reconnaissance plane and would actually draw the towns in Germany of what they would be bombing

She came with my Grandad to Australia as a 10 pound pom and they struggled to find work at first

Lost both breasts to cancer , the 2nd just before I was born

She had 4 heartaches / strokes , 3 of which I was within arms length of when they occurred

While she was still lucid I can never remember her without a smile
 
Im meeting my brother in Vegas in January who I havent seen in nearly 8 years. We're going to get disgracfully drunk together there and eat at Gordon Ramsey's restaurant then he's spending 2 weeks at my house here in the US. He was there when my daughter was born and hasnt seen her since and hasnt seen my son yet. I know it'll be past Xmas but thats what Im most excited about.
 
I hope your Xmas is a joyful one Chris,nothing like a good family get together,especially after such a long time,get drunk but don't disgrace yourself ha ha …have a good one.....

She has a strange connection to the WT's

Sadly she passed away during half time of the Sharks v WT's game on Easter Sunday in 2006 The Tigers were down at the time but rattled home to keep the Sharks scoreless in the 2nd half

I like to think she had a quite word to the football gods that day

She was too nice a lady to say no to :smiley:
